Accounting policies
Company information

Damfield Developments Limited is a private company limited by shares incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is 19 Mount Pleasant, Waterloo, Liverpool, L22 5PL.

1.1
Reporting period

These financial statements are for the period ended 28 March 2023. The previous financial statements were for the period ended 29 March 2022, in order that the company's accounting reference date aligned with that of fellow group companies. As such, the comparative amounts presented in the financial statements (including the related notes) are not entirely comparable.

1.2
Accounting convention

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (“FRS 102”) and the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 as applicable to companies subject to the small companies regime. The disclosure requirements of section 1A of FRS 102 have been applied other than where additional disclosure is required to show a true and fair view.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the company. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

1.3
Going concern

The company meets its day to day working capital requirements through loans provided by the parent company and fellow subsidiary undertakings.true

 

The parent company and fellow subsidiary undertakings have confirmed that they will continue to support the company in this manner for the foreseeable future and the financial statements have therefore been prepared on the going concern basis.

1.4
Turnover

Turnover on private residential properties is recognised on legal completion of sale of each individual property within the development. An estimate is made of the profit attributable to each property and is calculated based on an assessment of the overall profitability of the development.

1.5
Stocks

Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Land stock is recorded at cost and the carrying amount is reviewed regularly by the director for any evidence of impairment, taking into account factors such as opportunity for development and status of planning permissions.

 

Similarly, work in progress is recorded at cost and its recoverability is reviewed regularly with reference to the current market sales prices that are expected to be received and forecast costs to complete.

1.6
Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents are basic financial assets and include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.

1.7
Financial instruments

The company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.

 

Financial instruments are recognised in the company's balance sheet when the company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Basic financial assets

Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at cost.

Classification of financial liabilities

Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the company after deducting all of its liabilities.

Basic financial liabilities

Basic financial liabilities, including creditors, bank loans, loans from fellow group companies and preference shares that are classified as debt, are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.

 

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less.

1.8
Equity instruments

Equity instruments issued by the company are recorded at the proceeds received, net of transaction costs. Dividends payable on equity instruments are recognised as liabilities once they are no longer at the discretion of the company.

2
Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty

In the application of the company’s accounting policies, the director is required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

 

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
